Software Engineer Interview Experience

January 1, 2016
Positive ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I applied through the online process and an employee referral.

Essentially, the recruiter sends you an email and speaks with you first about your resume and general questions.

The recruiter then explains the interview process over the phone. This process typically consists of two phone interviews and two on-site interviews, provided you perform well in the initial phone screenings.

For the phone interviews, you will code using Coderpad in a language of your choice for about an hour.

Questions

Implement a way to check if the driver took an 8-hour break after 12 hours of driving. If not, disable driver mode.
